The implementation uses a specialized trie that has not been tuned to the table
data. I tried guessing parameter values that should work well, but did not do
any performance measurements.
There is no efficient way to initialize arrays with static data in Swift. The
required tables are being generated as C++ code in the runtime library.

This is only for the frontend, not for stdlib. The implementation is very
slow, optimizing it is the next step.

double-quoted string literals that contain a single extended grapheme cluster
SEGCL by default infer type String, but you can ask to infer Character
for them.
Single quoted literals continue to infer Character.
Actual extended grapheme cluster segmentation is not implemented yet,

A successor map is a somewhat targetted data structure which
is designed to give you the value for the lowest key that is
larger than the lookup key.
This is useful when applying a transformation that isn't
entirely one-to-one but where we nonetheless want to preserve
the original order as much as possible, e.g. when IR-genning
SILFunctions.

Also remove the SourceLoc parameter from addNewSourceBuffer(). In llvm::SourceMgr
it is used to indicate textual inclusion, which we don't have in swift.

In order to do this, we need to save and restore parser state easily. The
important pieces of state are:
* lexer position;
* lexical scope stack.
Lexer position can be saved/restored easily. We don't need to store the tokens
for the function body because swift does not have a preprocessor and we can
easily re-lex everything we need. We just store the lexer state for the
beginning and the end of the body.
To save the lexical scope stack, we had to change the underlying data
structure. Originally, the parser used the ScopedHashTable, which supports
only a stack of scopes. But we need a *tree* of scopes. I implemented
TreeScopedHashTable based on ScopedHashTable. It has an optimization for
pushing/popping scopes in a stack fashion -- these scopes will not be allocated
on the heap. While ‘detached’ scopes that we want to re-enter later, and all
their parent scopes, are moved to the heap.
In parseIntoTranslationUnit() we do a second pass over the 'structural AST'
that does not contain function bodies to actually parse them from saved token
ranges.
